plant labeling was a bit haphazard and the rooms the plant displays were in were really too dark. I did like the witch hazels that several displays had, especially the burgundy colored one. There were also some lovely lilacs in bloom and Cornelian cherry or Cornus mas, which is a very early bloomer. I know this because I have one in my garden. It has teeny bright yellow flowers and comes out way before the forsythia. The ones at the show were smaller of course, mine is about 8 feet tall and is a bright yellow torch when it blooms. If we get some warmed up weather, I could see this at the end of the month. People don't use it much down here. here are some of the ones I liked. The little bridge was cute. The train was moving too fast for me to get a good picture. I liked the exhibit with the truck!
I liked the shuttle bus to the parking lots.
